Swap Meet find
Check out what I found at a swap meet by my house today. It's a b&m ratchet shifter. I got it for 20 bucks and it goes through all the gears and everything fine. Can anybody help me with some of the parts its missing? I know it need a indicator but what about the back up lights and all that?

Re: Swap Meet find
I wouldn't be surprised if the small parts, etc were still available from B&M!
Nice grab!

Re: Swap Meet find
i need a backup light switch, and so do you. summit sells some from b&m that you can wire up, but the shifter should have one that belongs on the side of the shifter.
wow i can't believe it but both these links were in my favorties.  http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...9&autoview=sku that's the neutral safety switch from summit http://www.bmracing.com/media/products/pdf/10.pdf this is a pdf installation and manual for a light truck mega shifter. it looks like your shifter is a car version (shorter base) but i think it's all the same.

Re: Swap Meet find
I have that back up light switch dont I? Its that little black thing toward the front. The thing is I dont have the indicator. So I may just wire up a swtich that that I can turn on my back up lights manualy if I ever need them. My lights only work half the time anyways as it is.

Re: Swap Meet find
I think thats my back up light switch and the neutral safety switch mounts lower on the bottom near the lincage.
